This is an unconsented destructive project-file mutation, with no confirmed exfiltration or remote execution. - **Trigger:** npm install of @buntok/core - **Impact:** Existing project documentation is destroyed or replaced. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs, dist/core-exports.cjs - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-08-22T12:19:26.405Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** postinstall copies the package README over the project README - **Rationale:** The package is not shown to be malicious, but its automatic install hook performs an unnecessary, unconsented overwrite of a consumer project file. This concrete destructive behavior warrants a warning rather than publication blocking under the stated policy. - **Files touched:** README.md, \/README.md, package.json, scripts/postinstall.mjs ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 96.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** Install hook runs automatically after npm installation., Hook selects the invoking project directory as its target., Hook unconditionally overwrites the project-root README.md with package content. - **Evidence against:** The hook reads only this package's README and has no network, credential, shell, or payload-execution path., Dynamic require/native loading is a runtime optional Bun FFI accelerator; it loads only locally discovered libraries., new Function usage compiles framework routing/middleware pipelines at runtime, not externally supplied code. ## Public findings ### 1.
